Test conditions and notes9
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1μF & 47μF parallel capacitor.
- 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
- 4. Length of set up time is measured at first cold start. Turning ON/OFF the power supply may lead to increase of the set up time.
- 5. Heat sink HS2,HS3 can not be shorted.
- 6. Heat sink HS2,HS3 must have safety isolation distance from system case.
- 7. The power supply is considered a component which will be installed into a final equipment. All the EMC tests are been executed by mounting the unit on a 230mm*230mm metal plate with 1mm of thickness. The final equipment must be re-confirmed that it still meets EMC directives. For guidance on how to perform these EMC tests, please refer to “EMI testing of component power supplies.” (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf )
- 8. Please refer to suggest application (2)、(4) in page 3.
- 9. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m with fanless models and of 5℃/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than 2000m(6500ft).

FAQ
Can I use the PSC-100A for a 12V nominal industrial control panel that needs battery-backed DC power?
The PSC-100A provides a 13.8V DC output rated 4.75A on CH1 (plus 2.5A on CH2), with 100.05W total rated power. Its UPS function makes it suitable for equipment designed for 13.8V battery-backed operation, as long as the connected load stays within the 4.75A CH1 rating.
Is the PSC-100A suitable for alarm, security, or access-control electronics that run from a battery-backed DC bus?
It can be a fit for systems that are designed to operate from a 13.8V DC supply and need up to the 4.75A rated CH1 current. The built-in UPS function is relevant for battery-backed electronics, but the end device still needs to match 13.8V and stay within the unit's 100.05W total rated power.
Can the PSC-100A power embedded or industrial communication equipment that expects regulated low-voltage DC?
This model outputs regulated 13.8V DC (±0.5% line and load regulation) with 4.75A rated on CH1. That makes it appropriate for embedded, monitoring, or communication equipment that specifically accepts 13.8V input and stays within that current rating.
Is the PSC-100A a good choice for automation backup power where the AC source may vary by region?
The input range is 90-264VAC, so it is suited to sites using different standard AC mains within that range. On the DC side it delivers 13.8V with 4.75A rated on CH1, which is useful for automation loads that need consistent low-voltage power with UPS function support.
Can the PSC-100A be used outdoors or in harsh environments?
The provided specs list an operating temperature range of -20°C to +70°C, with load derating at higher temperatures per the derating curve. No IP rating is listed, and the PSC-100A is a PCB-only (open frame) component intended to be installed inside end equipment, so it is not suited to outdoor exposure or washdown.
How does the PSC-100A compare with other PSC battery charger models in the same series?
On the PSC-100 datasheet, the 13.8V models are PSC-100A (PCB only) and PSC-100A-C (enclosed, with L-bracket and cover) at 100.05W, rated 4.75A on CH1 and 2.5A on CH2, 86% efficiency. The 27.6V models are PSC-100B and PSC-100B-C at 100.74W, rated 2.4A on CH1 and 1.25A on CH2, 88% efficiency. Other PSC series models are not covered by this sheet.
